**WE ARE NO LONGER Temporarily Reverting Tier 1 War Ban System**
After further discussion, the game team has made the decision not make adjustements to the ban system.
The previously proposed fix would have resolved the issue for Summoners who are on the cusp of T1/T2 play, and negatively impacted Alliances more securely in T1. Instead, we recommend that cusp Alliances switch to Manual Placement to your members to place the allotted 5 Ban Champions limit there.
Apologies for the back and forth, and for any confusion.

Sorry for your loss, OP, if it‘s all real.
Your situation is unfortunate. If you or your relative ever used the same device then that is reason for ban. Don't go into business with family and don't share mcoc with family.
1. When players are banned from the game, they aren’t blocked from connecting. They can connect fine. They just get a banned message when they log into the game. The fact you say your cousin “couldn’t connect either” makes me suspect the problem isn’t that either of you are banned, something else is wrong.
2. However, if you are banned, Kabam doesn’t ban by IP address. That’s just not a thing that happens, or they would occasionally ban everyone playing the game at a Starbucks. Kabam is not infallible when it comes to bans (or anything else) but this is not an error they have ever made before or would likely ever make.
3. It is impossible to “prove your innocence.” As someone that has actually investigated bans that have actually gotten reversed, I’ve never been able to prove the innocence of anyone. Rather, I have on a couple of extremely rare circumstances suspected someone was banned for a very specific reason that turned out to be flawed in some way. If you have absolutely no idea why you were banned whatsoever, neither I nor anyone else would have any way of attempting to prove your ban was a mistake. But as I said, Kabam doesn’t do IP based bans, so that suggests to me that either something else is wrong, or both of you were banned for specific reasons, like account sharing, that you think Kabam shouldn’t have been able to detect and thus think you can attempt to prove didn’t happen. Trust me, if you did, no VPN or router, or other IP address shenanigans is going to help you, and Kabam’s fair play team is not going to spell out precisely what technical means they used to discover your violations.
